Silver Sapphics: A Singles Mixer For The 50+ Community

Hi, Matchmaker Karmen here. I've spoken with a lot of lesbians and bi women over the age of 50 recently who feel like nightlife caters to a younger crowd. And, for most people, it's not as easy to meet people in bars as it used to be. So, I'm partnering with Henrietta Hudson to bring you Silver Sapphics, a singles mixer for the 50+ community. If you're a single, sapphic, and open to meeting new people, come to Hen's and bring a friend. We'll have a q & a discussion with Matchmaker Karmen, play some games to facilitate new connections, and enjoy the comfort of community. Date & Time: Friday, January 16, 2026 6-8 pm aka Happy Hour! About the Host: Karmen Paley: Matchmaker and Founder of Karmen Connects, a boutique matchmaking agency serving LGBTQ+ clientele. With five years of experience, Karmen has celebrated many lasting matches across the spectrum of identity. Specializing in the unique dynamics of queer dating, they focus on helping LGBTQ+ individuals navigate dating with intentionality and authenticity.  Henrietta Hudson is a legendary venue built by lesbians and rooted in community, activism, and care. For over 30 years, Hen’s has served as a safe haven in NYC—now reimagined as a spacious, airy lounge designed for connection, comfort, and creativity. Blending the warmth of a living room with the ease of a petite café, the space features mid-century modern design, cozy seating, work nooks, an outdoor enclave, a charcuterie bar, and a refreshed cocktail menu. While proudly the longest-running lesbian bar in the country, Henrietta Hudson embraces and uplifts the entire queer community—past, present, and future. Questions?
